[ardour-users] Setting up a DAW on Mandrake 10.1

[Jenny Bernard]

Hi Daniel,

I'm running Mandrake 10.1 and using an SBLIve card too.  Being 
relatively new to Linux I can't offer a lot of detailed advice, but I 
have found Thac's rpms to be helpful:
http://rpm.nyvalls.se/index10.1.html
He's got a lot of things built for Mandrake 10.1 and that's where I got 
my versions of jack and ardour.  I don't recall having any problems 
getting either of them up and running.

Hope that helps!
Jenny
